England v Windies - 5th ODI

At the Rose Bowl, 12:30 start, day/nighter

Weather looks overcast and expectant here in Bournemouth and the couds are scudding westwards so will this get played at all?

England have won the series already so the Windies will be playing for pride. No Stokes or Hales so a chance for some of the fringer players to step up to the plate.

Gale has gone for 40

West Indies currently 56 - 1 off about 8 overs

Cracking C&B there from Plunkett to dismiss K Hope. 86-2

But WTF? with the crowd size there? Are the skates playing there?

So Gayle got 40 from 29 balls!!

1 four and 5 sixes, so that’s 34 runs from boundaries in 6 shots

Means he scored 6 runs off of the other 22 balls!!!

England 4 needed off 76 balls…tense stuff.

And relax

That appears to have been easier than it was looking to be during the windies innings.

A nice finish before they all bugger of down south for the Ashes tour.
